    TCE brake lines

    Just ordered some SS braided brake lines from TCE Performance. I had them on my previous Marauder. They do make a big difference. I can't wait to install them. I will bleed out system add new fluid. It has been awhile are there any tricks for clearances or on tightening fittings ?
    2004 marauder black purchased new. Sold 9/16 at 297,000 miles. Still ran strong didn't burn a drop of oil.
    2003 marauder black 28,000 miles all stock. Garage Queen.
    2004 marauder red daily driver.

    Make sure there is weight on the suspension and "clock" the hoses so there is no rubbing.

    Use some tie wraps to keep them away from the tires in the front when turning.

    If they are clocked right then there is no need for tie wraps....... There aren't any on the factory hoses....

    Do you have a specific part number that you used for speed bleeders?
